This is a Paddock to Bottle Release for an Ex Amontillado Sherry Cask (250L). 
 
Nose: A symphony of rich, inviting aromas waft from the glass. Initially, there's a burst of dried fruits, led by raisins and figs, followed by a delicate nuttiness of almonds and walnuts. The influence of the ex-Amontillado sherry barrel is unmistakable, with notes of warm, spiced oak, and a gentle suggestion of toffee and caramel.
 
Palate: The first sip is a revelation. The mouthfeel is velvety and luxurious, coating the palate with a harmonious blend of flavors. There's an immediate burst of sweet, juicy red berries, mingling with honeyed apricots and dates. The sherry influence is pronounced, lending a delightful complexity with hints of roasted nuts, dark chocolate, and a subtle undercurrent of dried orange peel.
 
Finish: The finish is long and contemplative, with layers of flavor gradually revealing themselves. Oak and spice take center stage, as the warmth of cinnamon and cloves interlaces with a touch of espresso bitterness. The sherry influence lingers, imparting a sweet, fruity echo that fades into a gentle, oak-driven dryness. It's a captivating finale that invites you to savor every moment.
 
Overall: This single malt, matured in an ex-Amontillado sherry barrel, is a true masterpiece of craftsmanship. It combines the best of both worlds, marrying the elegance of sherry-cask aging with the character of a well-aged single malt. The result is a whisky that offers a rich, complex, and deeply satisfying experience for the discerning palate.
